18 A. Mayor.
19 1. Meeting Regarding Crime Prevention. Mayor Ranallo outlined a meeting he and Police
20 Chief Engstrom attended regarding crime prevention. There were 22 mayors and 40 community
21 representatives in attendance. He informed the Council that the head of the Juvenile Division of
22 the St. Paul Police reported that there has been an increase in violent crimes but not in regular
23 crimes, and that 87%of crimes are committed by juveniles with 90%being males. The main
24 reason for the increase in juvenile crimes is attributable to lack of parental supervision.
25 Fleming was concerned that if the problem was lack of parental supervision, why was funding in
26 the recently signed Crime Bill being designated to hire additional police officers. Mayor Ranallo
27 agreed. He stated that it is estimated that the money included in the Crime Bill, which was
28 signed today, will be used within 6 years. One of the recommended uses is a Statewide Share
29 Information Program which would make information on criminals available to all police offices
30 in the state of Minnesota. Mayor Ranallo stated he will continue to attend and report on these
31 meetings.
32 2. Cable TV. Mayor Ranallo indicated a survey was done to establish the number of people
33 who would watch Council meetings, if televised. In St. Anthony only 2% of the population
responded to the survey. Of the 30% of the residents in St. Anthony who subscribe to cable, only
5 2% said they would be interested in watching the broadcast.
